About our worktop repair in Wayford

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are chipped corners and cuts and scratches in the surface.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What we’re called out for in Wayford

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Gouges in the surface
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Chips near the sink
  • Damage to a stone worktop

10 questions to ask before booking

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Laminate
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood
  • Quartz
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Questions from Wayford

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Wayford?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How much do I need to move?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Generally. Send us a photo and we will tell you.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Wayford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
